Every year during Memorial Day weekend I venture out to one of our numerous nearby National Cemeteries to take a few photos and contemplate. It is always a humbling experience, no matter how many times I do it.
Tumblr media
So on this Memorial Day weekend enjoy the freedoms that we have. Sit back, relax, grill a few steaks, and watch the Indy 500.

But, just for a few moments please think about the hundreds of thousands of men and women that gave their lives to protect those freedoms. It’s the least we can do.
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

Holland in Virginia
I was all set to go to a farm to see and pick tulips but I didn't buy the tickets right away. When I went back to buy them, they were sold out. I even woke up early to get same day tickets and they sold out while the tickets were in my cart.
But then I saw that the Netherlands Carillon area had tulips too! You can't pick them but you can see them.

Here's the view from the grounds of the Carillon.

This not only gives a bit of detail into what goes into roles like honor guards and cemetery officials...
It also highlights exactly how vile it was when Trump's campaign characterized the official who objected to their videoing as (and I directly quote) "clearly suffering from a mental health episode".
Like... I'm not exactly shocked or surprised... but still... the fuck.
Also, this may be harsh, but the Gold Stars and vets who took part in this were complicit. It was absolutely fair for them to take part in te RNC, even if I may disagree. It was a whole other thing to smile next Trump as he thumbs-up his way into turning Arlington into a circus. ESPECIALLY since other families have been caught up in this:

veterans & active duty currently serving & consider the Constitution something that must be protected:
Tumblr media
if you still want to vote for this traitor, you might as well take a dump on the Constitution next to the one he & his gang will be adding. anything that is sacred in the United States isn't to this felon. he was the first president to not only attempt to not peacefully transfer his power he also incited an attempted insurrection. do you care about cops? one died on January 6th.
this should be career-ending. it's illegal. it's a federal offense. but somehow this rich, spoiled narcissistic asshole spits on what we hold dearly & revere & yet he continues to be celebrated. are you angry? offended? upset? i should hope so if you actually respect our fallen.
if you still stand up with this piece of shit you're just as much of a traitor. do you look forward to shooting your fellow countrymen if they make the misfortune of having a problem with going through hell because of this man? you're fucking awful. do better. to anyone else who has served or are currently serving & you changed your mind or have always been here, welcome.
i was active duty & have since been honorably discharged. the Constitution is still very important to me. if this isn't sacred then neither are our rights. we need to fight to protect them. this evil man who avoided the draft with his fake bone spurs will never understand this.
please check your registration status often. vote early if you can. don't stop talking about Project 2025/Agenda 47 & this psychotic weirdo's connection to it. you want to know why he never talks about policy? it's because Project 2025 IS his policy. we can do this 💙
